Camping
Two 50-site campgrounds are located along the shores of Strom Thurmond Lake. Both campgrounds are conveniently located in relation to restrooms with hot showers. Campground #1 is ideal for tent campers. Each site includes individual water, no electricity and rents for $10-13/site/night. Campground #2 includes sites with individual water and electrical hookups which rent for $15-17/site/night. Some Campground #2 sites accommodate RVs up to 40 feet, others up to 30 feet. Discounted rates are available for seasons of lower demand. A Dump Station is accessible to campers at both campgrounds.

A primitive group camping area is ideal for organized groups up to 100 people. (An organized group is defined as “a group that holds regular meetings and has a lead officer or elected/appointed officials”.) The area includes picnic tables and is located 100 feet from the restoom. Minimum rate is $10 -$12.50 which allows up to ten campers. The rate increases by $5-$6.50 increments for each additional five campers. To make a primitive group camping reservation, contact the park directly.
